Hi all,
April 16-17 in Antwerp, Belgium, the Linux Open Administration Days will
take place. This free event offers a chance for LPI certification as
well as meeting and talking to linux sysadmins. There is a call for
presentations here: http://www.loadays.org/content/call-presentations
If you want to go and give a talk there about openSUSE tech - that's be
awesome. If you can't afford to go there due to travel or hotel costs,
let me know, we might be able to work something out ;-)
cheers,
Jos
Howdy!
With the end of the GSoC 2011 also our PooS special ends for first time.
So, I´m searching again for "normal" people now! That means, everybody
who´s thinking he or she would fit in, just need to mail me and ask for
an interview (otherwise, I will mail people.)
Actually, I wanted to release an interview with Chuck after the GSoC
periode, but I never get something from him back (or? If so, please
correct me and send it again, I´m sorry...)
> New people
So, I´m searching for new people who wants to get interviewed. So,
*please* don´t be shy and mail me. I´m planning to do one interview per
week, so that the weekly news guys could use it in their weekly update.
> New questions
A few months ago, we had a discussion about the questions that been
asked on the interviews. I created a draft for a new question sheets
which combinates the old with the new Jos came with up. Please review it
and let me know if you´re okay with it or if you want something to change.
See:
http://www.lhag.bplaced.com/~kdl/files/openSUSE/poos_2012_draft.odt
I planned to introduce these questions in 2012. That means, I will
continue the rest of the year with the old questions and start with the
new next year.
> Why?
I started in 2011 with the old and if you have a look at the wiki, you
will see it´s subdivided in years. So, the future 2012 "season" would be
nice for an introduction of the new questions.
So, if _you_ want to change something on the question sheet please do it
*now* and before the new questions are introduced.
I´m looking forward to your feedback and to some more interviews!
sincerly yours,
kdl

Hey all,
So the Zentrifuge location is a 'creative and open space' which also means
it's quite empty right now... We are supposed to lighten up the place with our
energetic presence :D
To help with that, we need EVERYONE who is available on saturday to help make
it pretty. We've got a bunch of $$$ and a van - and empty rooms with room for
imagination.
Who helps us buy stuff, bring it to the conference, then help carry beanbags,
hang up posters, put down potted plants and more things like that to make it
work for oSC?!?
We really need some help with that, so anyone... please?
It'd be nice if you let us know if you can help, but even if you don't - just
show up saturday as early as possible (not before 10, of course) and help us
cary stuff around :D

FYI, most SUSE employees - including myself - have changed their
emailaddresses which they use in openFATE and bugzilla from @novell.com to
@suse.com.
Btw. I still read emails on all accounts, this change is just for adding
anybody manually to an openFATE request or bugzilla report.
A sidenote: For lizards and news.opensuse.org, the emailaddress is the key for
authentification. If your email adress is changed and you can't login anymore,
tell the admins (via news(a)opensuse.org),

Hello, all!
This mail is final evaluations report for my project.
Unfortunately not all initial goals [from my proposal] were done due
to my illness, but I have some results which I want to present.
Overall "what is done":
- Arch module for "build" which can:
* parse PKGBUILDs and extract dependencies
* parse .PKGINFO files from .pkg.tar.?z pakages and get info about it
- Helper script, which gets repository metadata and prints information
about packages in build corresponding format (package metadata parsing
functions are also in arch module, so anyone can use them if needed)
- Setup of Archlinux-specific build environment in init_buildsystem
- Actual build in "build" script
Now Archlinux backend is able to do _standalone_ builds.
It's interesting, but it's not what we want.
Of course I'll continue my work to fully integrate Archlinux support
to OBS (independently of final evaluations results and after end of
this GSoC).
Now I plan to add support to libsatsolver [1] and integrate into OBS
[2] (after polishing of the backend, see below).
Some notes about current implementation: it's not ideal.
I see some bugs with dependency tracking (maybe we need to improve
common code used for all distros, don't sure).
Also it lacks support of multi-package PKGBUILD's and repos with not
official-like structure.
See TODO for more information [3].
Code is still located in my personal repo on gitorious (I think it's
not ready yet to be merged with opensuse offcial repo) [4].
If you have any questions, suggestions or anything else — feel free to
contact me.

also to Sascha Peilicke and Adrian Schröter.

Hello,
This is my last weekly report, for GSoC. My project is practically
finished, with working admin area. It still needs a bit of polish,
especially on the visuals, but I think all can be resolved soon
enough. I expect the following weeks for confirmation to implement it
on a server and present it officially on the openSUSE Conference. The
code is in gitorious.org/gsoc-2011/
Thanks to everyone that have helped, Google, openSUSE, and special
thanks to my mentor, Mr. Kai-Uwe Behrmann
Please feel free to contact me with any feedback or comment.

Hello peers!
I just discovered, that users.o.o redirects me to connect.o.o. What
happened to the user directory? Did it moved to another subdomain, or
will it be continued with connect?
thanks in advance,
